Maybe, but they cost a lot less, with no ducts or concrete pads or
plumbing
or special electrical wiring, and low-cost Chinese and Korean labor, vs
local HVAC criminals. At $69 for 5340 Btu/h at 10.2 EER (Daewoo), a 3-ton
system is $69x36K/5340 = $465.17. And if one breaks, the rest keep
working.


The downside to window shakers-

1) Security...Your home is easily accessed if the burglar simply removes the
unit.

Bull****. Pulling a unit FROM THE OUTSIDE is a LOT harder
than just breaking a window or kicking in a door.

Earth to Trailor house Paul. i see you did not know about Theif 101 on the
street. All you do to break in a place with window shackers is to take crow bar
and lift the window slide up about 1 or 2 inches and then let the window unit
fall out the window and hit the ground. Then watch the cord still being plugged
in but just stand on the window shacker to climb in the wide open window where
the window unit use to be.

Yea, Kicking in Steel Doors with steel frames with Dead Bold Locks now a days
are real easy to kick in.
